In order to defend Kunming, the King of Yunnan hoped that Gao Jiu could lend a helping hand to the Yunnan army, so he wrote a sincere letter, hoping that Gao Jiu could assist the Yunnan army in blocking the Japanese attack for the sake of tens of millions of people in Yunnan.

Long Yingyuan was a little embarrassed, and he said, "Only Master Gao Jiu was able to defend Ruili City, which blocked a path of the Japanese army, reducing the pressure on Kunming. We can no longer force others to do anything.

What he said is correct. Gao Jiu and others were able to defend Ruili, which had solved a big problem for the Yunnan Army, so that the Yunnan Army could draw more troops to be used for defense in other directions.

Therefore, Long Yingyuan did not show his father's letter to Gao Jiu.

He said: "Please tell my father that he can draw troops from Ruili to Kunming and deploy defenses in other places. Gao Jiu can ensure safety in this direction.

The major officer said, "Three Young Master, Chairman Long has done this, so he transferred the strengthening regiment of the Yunnan Army from Ruili. However, the Japanese army has too many troops this time, and the defenders in Kunming are insufficient. He still hopes that Gao Jiu can lend a helping hand. Please hand over Chairman Long's letter to Mr. Gao, otherwise I will not be able to submit the service when I go back."

The major officer was the adjutant of the King of Yunnan. He would never dare to tell lies in front of the King of Yunnan. And from his own perspective, he also hoped that Gao Jiu could help the Yunnan army fight against the Japanese attack.

Long Yingyuan was also helpless, and he said, "Okay, I'll go find Gao Jiu again."

Long Yingyuan handed over the letter from the King of Yunnan to Gao Jiu. The letter from the King of Yunnan was humble and sincere, giving Gao Jiu a full face. Gao Jiu was in Yunnan and his future career was inseparable from the support of the King of Yunnan. He was really unable to extricate his face.

After thinking about it, he said, "Okay! I can send troops to help the Yunnan Army fight, but this time it is not advisable to appear in the name of our Taohuashan guerrillas. I am going to transfer a squadron to change into your Yunnan Army's clothes, and conduct mobile combat in your defense area. Your Yunnan Army will be responsible for the supply issues."

Long Yingyuan told the major officer Gao Jiu's reply. The major officer was a little disappointed. He did not expect that with the face of the king of Yunnan, Gao Jiu was willing to send only one squadron to help, and the number of people was too small.

He said, "Third Master, I can't explain this even if I go back."

Long Yingyuan said: "Just be content. Don't underestimate a squadron of the Taohua Mountain Guerrillas. They can play a key role at critical moments. I can say that the role that other people's squadron can play on the battlefield is comparable to a division of our Yunnan Army."

Seeing that the major officer was still a little dissatisfied, Long Yingyuan said: "Think about it, the Japanese army of 100,000 dared not attack Ruili, and there were only more than 500 Taohuashan Special Forces in Ruili. Just calculate according to this ratio and you will know that a squadron of Taohuashan Special Forces can withstand many Yunnan Army troops.

Well, let's do this, I'll talk to Mr. Gao Jiu again and try to send more people over."

Long Yingyuan came to Gao Jiu again, hoping to send more people to help the Yunnan Army. Gao Jiu thought about it and said, "Let's do this, I'll let the two squadrons of Zhan Kui and Zheng Sanpao go together."

Not long after, Gao Jiu saw Wang Zhankui, Zheng Sanpao and others off. The major adjutant saw that the Taohuashan Special Forces were almost one person and two horses, carrying the 92 infantry cannons, mortars, rocket launchers, light machine guns and a large number of ammunition, as well as other materials and equipment such as engineer shovels, radio walkie-phones, etc. Each of the special forces members had a sniper rifle, a bobosha submachine gun, a pistol at the waist, a special war dagger, etc. It can be said that it was armed to the teeth. The most important thing was the momentum of the high confidence that was formed by the victory of the various battles revealed by the special forces members, which was daunting.

Sun Kun led the officers and soldiers of the strengthening regiment to march and received an order from the top of the peak to make defenses at Wufeng Mountain. The officers and soldiers of the strengthening regiment immediately changed the direction of the march to Wufeng Mountain.

Wufeng Mountain is an important barrier to the eastern plains of Yunnan. There are five connected peaks here, so it is called Wufeng Mountain.

Wufeng Mountain is in a dangerous terrain, and the highway from Guiyang to Kunming passes at the foot of Wufeng Mountain. This is an important transportation route for the Japanese army to attack Kunming from the east.

After the officers and soldiers of the strengthening regiment arrived at Wufeng Mountain, they immediately built blocking positions on the mountains on both sides of the Guikun Highway.

The training received by the officers and soldiers of the Yunnan Army was also carried out according to the infantry practice of the National Army. What they were best at was positional warfare, especially this kind of defense based on danger, which was their strength. They built a lot of covers with stones on the mountain and were very confident that they could repel the Japanese attack.

At 9 a.m. that day, a roar suddenly came from the sky, and a Japanese reconnaissance plane flew past the top of the mountain. The pilot clearly saw that there were many Yunnan soldiers wearing gray uniforms and large-brimmed hats on Wufeng Mountain. He hovered around, saw the deployment of the Yunnan soldiers clearly, and then flew away.

Sun Kun was originally confident in keeping his promise on Wufeng Mountain, but when he saw the Japanese reconnaissance plane, his face changed drastically.

The fortifications built by the Yunnan Army on the mountain were not afraid of the enemy's attack from the bottom of the mountain, but were very afraid of the bombing of the Japanese Air Force. There were rocks everywhere on the mountain, and bombs fell, so they had nowhere to hide. Not only that, bombs could shatter stones, and the splashed stones added to the lethality of the bomb.

In this case, if they are bombed by the Japanese Air Force, they will have no power to fight back and will definitely suffer heavy casualties.

Sun Kun was very worried and had to report the situation here to his superiors.

The superiors issued a death order to them, asking them to stick to Wufeng Mountain at all costs, and even if they fight one soldier, they are not allowed to take a step back.

Sun Kun had no choice but to stand on the top of the mountain and look at the groups of officers and soldiers in a strong regiment on the hillside, and he was in a very heavy mood. He didn't know how many of these people could be left after the Japanese bombers flew over?

In order to find out the enemy situation, Sun Kun also sent a lot of scouts at the foot of the mountain. At noon, the scouts came to report that a large number of Japanese troops appeared 20 miles below the mountain, and their number was the 28th Brigade of the Japanese Army.

This is really a narrow road for enemies. It turns out that after evacuating Lishui Town, they took a detour to attack Wufeng Mountain.

Sun Kun knew that after lunch, the Japanese army would likely launch an attack on Wufeng Mountain. Before the attack, air strikes would usually be launched. So he sent orders to leave a small number of people behind the bunker, and the rest looked for bunkers themselves to minimize casualties from the Japanese Air Force bombing.

However, the two hills that the officers and soldiers of the Yunnan Army were so big, there were not many places where people could hide, and they could not be too far from the defensive position. Therefore, although everyone found a bunker, when the bomb fell, the density of the personnel would still cause a large number of casualties. The officers and soldiers could only leave their fate and hoped that they would be lucky and that the bomb would not fall on their heads.

At this moment, Shanxia called and said that Gao Jiuye had sent a special forces team to come.

Upon hearing this news, Sun Kun was very excited and hurriedly went on to meet him.

The visitor was the Taohuashan Special Forces led by Wang Zhankui and Zheng Sanpao. They came to assist the strengthening regiment to cut off the Guikun Highway.

When Sun Kun saw Wang Zhankui and others, he felt half assured. He believed that they were standing on the mountain, and the Taohua Mountain Special Forces were harassing the Japanese army at the foot of the mountain. It was not so easy for the Japanese army to capture Wufeng Mountain.

However, he was still worried about the Japanese air force. He said, "Brother Zhan Kui, you have also seen that brothers are holding on the mountain. If the Japanese air force comes and there is no place to hide, what should I do?"

Wang Zhankui smiled and said, "Don't worry! Fight steadily, and only fight against the Japanese army on the ground, enemy planes will not come to bomb."

"Ah, really?" Sun Kun said in surprise.

Wang Zhankui said confidently: "The Japanese Air Force is very obedient. If Jiu Ye sends a telegram, they will be obedient and will not come to Wufeng Mountain."

It turned out that when Gao Jiu learned that King of Yunnan asked Wang Zhankui and others to cooperate with the Yunnan Army to strengthen the regiment to defend Wufeng Mountain, he first considered the threat from the Japanese Air Force to Wufeng Mountain.

The 8th Japanese Air Force did not bomb Ruili, and he had given Gao Jiu enough face. Gao Jiu was unwilling to provoke them. However, he was worried that Wang Zhankui and others would be bombed by enemy planes, so he sent a telegram to the commander of the Third Air Force, Makio Yokota, asking him to try to contact the 8th Air Force and tell them not to bomb Wufeng Mountain.

After receiving the telegram, Makio Yokota immediately sent a telegram to Gao Jiu, saying that the commander of the Eighth Air Force was also a classmate, and this matter was included in him. The telegram also said that now, the Nanjing pseudo regime has stopped using the 10-yuan Cash deposit coupon, which cut off their financial resources. He hopes that Gao Jiu can provide them with 20-yuan Cash deposit coupons or 5-yuan Cash deposit coupons. What they most hope is the 5-yuan Cash deposit coupons, which is easier to circulate because the denomination is small.

Gao Jiu replied to the telegram and expressed his gratitude to Makio Yokota, saying that he would soon send someone to send Makio Yokota with a denomination of 5 yuan and a deposit of 500,000 yuan to Makio Yokota with a denomination of 20 yuan.

Of course, Wang Zhankui would not tell Sun Kun about these specific inside stories, but Sun Kun still believed the truth, because the Japanese army did not dare to bomb Ruili, which proved this.

Sun Kun knew that the Japanese air force would not come, and his heart felt at once. He immediately told the officers and soldiers of the strengthening regiment that they had greater confidence in sticking to their positions.

At 3:30 pm, the vanguard troops of the 28th Brigade of the Japanese Army arrived at the foot of the mountain and soon launched an attack on the Yunnan Army on the mountain.

The Japanese army was eager to open up the Guikun Highway, and they invested a lot of troops as soon as they got up, and the battle was very fierce. The officers and soldiers of the Yunnan Army's strengthening regiment had already obtained weapons and equipment from Gao Jiu, and they even had a certain advantage in firepower. In addition, they occupied favorable terrain and repelled two attacks of the Japanese army, causing heavy casualties.

The commander of Tatsuyama's brigade was in a bad mood because he asked the Air Force to come for reinforcements before the first attack. The Eighth Air Force said that they would temporarily carry out other tasks and would help the 28th Brigade when it was freed up.

The next day, the commander of Tatsuyama Brigade asked for support from the Air Force again, and the Air Force's reply was that they had other important combat tasks to be carried out and they were not at ease with them for the time being.

The commander of the Tachiyama Brigade looked at the enemy's positions on both sides of Wufeng Mountain and was very worried. He didn't want his officers and soldiers to die in vain, so he reported to the division headquarters of the 15th Division, saying that their attack was blocked and that they hoped to get support from the air force and then launch an attack.

In the original combat plan, the 15th Division's offensive direction was air support by the Japanese Eighth Air Force. Now that the fight has really started, the 8th Air Force has not come to provide support, the 15th Division reported to the commander of the Fifth Army, and the commander of the Fifth Army attacked the lawsuit to the Southern Expeditionary Army Command.

The Southern Expeditionary Force Command issued an order to the Eighth Air Force to bomb Wufeng Mountain. The Eighth Air Force did not dare to disobey the order, so they agreed to send bombers to bomb Wufeng Mountain as soon as possible.

That morning, the Japanese army of the 28th Brigade prepared for the attack at the foot of the mountain, and waited for the bombers of the 8th Air Force to bomb and then launched a fierce attack.

However, they waited for a morning, and the bomber of the Eighth Air Force still did not appear. The commander of the Tachiyama Brigade was anxious and sued him again.

After waiting for nearly two hours, the superior's reply came. After reading the telegram, he was amused and crying. The division headquarters called him back and said that when two ground crew members of the Eighth Air Force installed an aviation bomb on the plane, they accidentally detonated an aviation bomb due to inadvertent operation. As a result, many aviation bombs were detonated. Not only did one aircraft be destroyed, but many air force personnel were also killed and injured. The airport runway was also blown up a large pit. They wanted to clean up the airport, and the plane could not take off for the time being. In short, let the 28th Brigade rely on its own strength to eliminate the enemy. They believe that the army of the Great Japanese Yellow Army was invincible, and even without the help of their air force, they would definitely be able to capture Wufeng Mountain.

The commander of the Tachiyama Brigade was very helpless, and his superiors urged him again, so he gritted his teeth and directed his troops to launch an attack on Wufeng Mountain.

It's really weird. The commander of the Pianshan Brigade deserves to be unlucky. Not only does he not receive support from the air force, but the Yunnan army troops they face are also different from other Yunnan army troops. I don't know where they got such powerful firepower.

On this day, they launched three consecutive attacks, and all ended in failure, losing hundreds of people.

After dinner, the commander of the Tachiyama Brigade was in a bad mood and fell asleep after drinking some wine.

At two o'clock in the morning, the commander of the Tachiyama Brigade was awakened by the violent explosion. At the base where the brigade headquarters was located, a large number of mortar shells flew from somewhere, blooming everywhere, causing heavy casualties among Japanese officers and soldiers.

The commander of the Tachiyama Brigade was so lucky that a shell exploded next to the tent. The shock wave completely tore the entire tent and destroyed it. Two shrapnel hit his right leg. No matter what, he saved his life.

The brigade commander on the set was very angry and immediately organized troops to encircle and suppress the abominable attackers. The Japanese guards rushed out of the camp and greeted them with fierce machine gun fire. The machine guns were shot very fiercely, and the dense gunfire sounds were like a tsunami. Suddenly, the enemy stopped shooting and there was silence in front of them.

When the Japanese officers and soldiers searched forward carefully and saw a large number of bullet shells on the ground, the enemy had already disappeared without a trace.

Of course they also gained something. Seeing horse manure left on the ground, they knew that it was a cavalry unit that attacked them, no wonder they disappeared so quickly.

The commander of the Tachiyama Brigade grinned in pain. After bandaging the wound, he notified his subordinates to count the losses. Soon after, the losses of the brigade headquarters were reported, and more than 130 people were lost, including 22 officers.

The commander of the Tachiyama Brigade was depressed, and bad news came again. The 28th Regiment of the 28th Brigade, the 28th Regiment of the baggage troops, encountered a fierce attack. The explosion of the mortar shells fired by the enemy caused the death of the shells they carried. Most of the baggage was destroyed, and more than 180 people were killed or injured.

The special forces team led by Wang Zhankui to attack the headquarters of the 28th Brigade, and the special forces team led by Zheng Sanpao to attack the 28th Regiment of the Japanese baggage troops.

Since entering Yunnan, the commander of the Pianshan Brigade has fought with the Yunnan Army more than once, and he really didn't take the Yunnan Army seriously. It's really weird. I don't know why the Yunnan Army in front of him suddenly became so powerful.

Due to the destruction of ammunition and supplies, the 28th Japanese Brigade was unable to attack anymore, so they could only station on the spot and wait for reinforcements from their superiors.

The 28th Regiment of the baggage troops received a notice from their superiors, asking them to go to the division headquarters to get the supplies for them to supplement them. They ran to the division headquarters of the 15th Division and received supplies for them. On the way back to the 28th Brigade, they suddenly encountered a fierce attack, and two enemies launched a surprise attack on them.

These enemies were wearing Dian Army uniforms, but the equipment they had was not possessed by ordinary Dian Army, and their tactical level was significantly higher than that of ordinary Dian Army troops.

Many of the Japanese baggage soldiers did not even have guns. Facing the fierce firepower of the enemy, they were beaten to pieces. They could not resist the enemy's attack at all, and they could only be forced to give up supplies and escaped by chance.

The attackers took away the supplies hunched on horseback and the war horses. The supplies hunched by vehicles were blown up by them with grenades, and then quickly evacuated.

Wang Zhankui and others seized a large number of supplies from the Japanese army. They did not care about these things, and except for horses, they gave them to the officers and soldiers of the strengthening regiment.

The officers and soldiers of the strengthening regiment ate Japanese canned beef, drank Japanese sake, and looked at the Japanese army at the foot of the mountain with contemptuous eyes.

The leader of the Tamayama brigade learned that the supplies were gone, so he had to apply to his superiors for replenishment again.

Just like the last time, the baggage troops were attacked again, and the supplies could not be transported at all.

Without the supplement of material supplies, let alone the attack continues, the officers and soldiers can't even eat.

That evening, the Japanese soldiers were so hungry that they were roaring. They kept drooling at the rice grains that could be counted clearly in the marching pot.

Wang Zhankui was very immoral and didn't even let anyone drink rice soup. They brought two Type 92 infantry cannons to attack the Japanese army. The shells flew over and the other's marching pot was blown away.

Yunnan is really a beautiful place for human survival. However, the warm and humid climate here is also a paradise for mosquitoes.

It is the rainy season now, and mosquitoes are thriving in large quantities, and dozens of species of mosquitoes have caused the Japanese soldiers to suffer.

Among the 18 monsters in Yunnan, there is a saying that "three mosquitoes are one dish". You can imagine how big those mosquitoes are. However, big mosquitoes are easy to deal with. The most powerful one is a kind of mosquito that is smaller than rice grains, called Mengzi, or small bites. Don't look at it as small as it is a big bag when bitten, which is crazy itchy. You can't scratch it, as it will leave scars once it is scratched.

This small bite is huge in number, one by one, and it is terrifying! Because it is small in size, it can penetrate into a mosquito net, which is unpredictable.

At night, the commander of the Tachiyama Brigade hid in two layers of mosquito nets and felt a little better. He scratched for a while and finally fell asleep. The damn enemy came again! The shells continued to explode, and the Japanese officers and soldiers were killed and injured. However, when the Japanese army concentrated their forces and rushed out, the enemy disappeared again.

The commander of Tatsuyama brigade was very distressed and now he had a desire to retreat.

Although the commander of the Tachiyama Brigade did not see the Taohuashan Special Forces wearing camouflage uniforms, he always felt that they had their shadow. He was worried about the enemy's counterattack, so he finally made up his mind and simply took the troops to retreat.

In this way, Gao Jiu blocked the Japanese army's attack from Ruili and Wufengshan. The King of Yunnan could calmly mobilize troops and strengthen other defenses. Like in history, the Japanese army eventually gave up the attack on Kunming.

The Taohuashan Special Forces lived much better than the Japanese army. After Gao Jiu arrived in Yunnan, he organized the research institute to produce various products, including Fengliu, which was very effective in dealing with mosquito bites. Mosquitoes do not like the smell of Fengliu, so as long as you apply Fengliu to exposed parts of the body, you can avoid mosquito bites.

The members of the Taohuashan Special Forces all carried the stylus with them, which made the officers and soldiers of the Yunnan Army's reinforcement regiment envious.

Sun Kun asked for two bottles of erection oil from Wang Zhankui. After applying it, he felt very cool and refreshing. He suggested to his superiors that he hoped to purchase a large amount of erection oil from Gaojiu's research institute to equip the troops.

Gao Jiu has no shortage of raw materials for producing fume oil essence here, and there is no technical problem, but the small glass bottles used for packaging cannot be purchased in Yunnan. They can only import them from abroad for the time being, which limits the production of fume oil essence.

On this day, Gao Jiu came to the research institute and asked a professor who taught chemical engineering to lead a group of students to build a glass processing factory specializing in the production of pharmaceutical packaging. In addition to the syrup, Gao Jiu also has many medical products, and he wants to release them in advance and put them on the market.
